About
GonzoVR is a real-world live VR broadcast experience where you can watch and chat in real time with streamers during scheduled broadcasts, collaboratively control a VR camera by driving it around on an RC car, and interact with elements of the real world, including a really cool dog named Gonzo.
There are two main broadcast types:
Streamercasts: scheduled live streams with people who you can interact with
Features:

Early Access Review Short and ush.
A great Idea with a lot of Potential.
Since the Whole thing is still in the Making Phase, it is teeming with smaller Errors. However, the System itself is very well thought out and just as well implemented.
With a little Time, this will certainly be a great Thing (it already is)!

Early Access Review GonzoVR is a live broadcast with some Extras (tested with the HTC Vive) At the Beginning we are greeted in a detailed Tutorial by the Developers and learn everything you need to Know about the Program here. Here we learn how to Chat, interact with Objects (in this Case pictures) or also control a remote-controlled Car including Webcam.
After that, we have the Opportunity to participate in a live chat. (If level is held)
In the Chat we sit in the Moderator's Living room and can talk to her and other Participants live.
The Concept actually goes up well, you feel really addressed and have a Mid-chin feel.
Even if after some Time the Chat has to be restarted again and again, because it starts to be easy to store, the Basic Principle is great.
Of course, it gets a bit complicated for larger Groups when a lot of People talk, but that's no different in real Life.
In addition to the Entertainment, we also Have a Chat at our disposal, which we operate via a virtual Keyboard. This one appears by simply looking down.
If you want to pass the Time a little, you can look around the House with the remote-controlled Carriages, feed the Dog (bearpoint, that costs real Money) or click on interactive Pictures.
A better internet Line is needed for the Transmission, and a Lot of Data is also transferred.
I like the Concept very much, one can only hope that more Moderators will be able to sign up in the Future and then use the Program from their Own home. Unfortunately, I no longer had Time to talk to the Developers, so I can't say yet where the Path should lead.
* Meanwhile, I had the Opportunity to change a few Words with the Developers. There will be additional interactive Opportunities in the Future. A Mal robot for Remote Control has already been tested, there are Considerations to set up a Racetrack for the remote-controlled Cars and also to invite Guest Presenters.
If the app succeeds, it may also be a good idea to allow other Users to stream from their Homes.
Since it is (currently) a 2-Person project, the Implementation can of course take a bit of a time, but so far the two have done a good Job.
Since GonzoVR is free, everyone should get a Picture of it, that'S what Broadcast might look like in the Future.
